18" Moda R6???

I am getting ready to buy a CL-S and have been looking at
wheels to put on the car. I really had my heart set on the
Moda R6, but called the Tire Rack and found out that they
don't have it in 18" for the CL-S. Anyone out there seen
a wheel that looks similar??? I have seen one at
Radius-Autotech.com, but can't find them anywhere.
Thanks in advance........................................... ............

tire rack has become almost impossible to deal with anymore...they always have to know what car you have.....tell them you dont have one but you may buy one to fit the wheels....ass holes....i know the size offset and bolt patern just tell me if you sell it that way....

Tire rack goes by stock sizes and offsets. Find out what the offset is, for an 18" it should be +42 or higher. Someone on this board had them in 19".............do a search.

The highest I will go is 18''. I would be going through 3 tires a week if I had 19''s with all the potholes and crappy roads around!!

_There has to be a Moda R6 18'' wheel that will fit the CL...But due to my lack of knowledge in Wheels/Tires, I don't know anything about what offset or size I need for it to fit without a complication. Tirerack sucks, and does not help me at all when searching for this wheel on there, yet it says they have 18'' in the Moda R6....I just want these damn wheels!!!

I agree; it's tough to find these wheels
I was looking for them this summer because i loved the way they looked on LB's
i even resorted to looking on ebay lol
i found a few though so they're out there somewhere

stay away from modas.. i ran the moda r6 in 17x7.5 and i bent the hell out of the wheels. these rims are very prone to damage and they are fairly heavy. pick another wheel.

is it me or did the person who tinted this car's back window didn't complete it? It looks like it's missing the vinyl part that covers the dot matrix

Yeh. Mine was like that too. It was just too much effort to remove the rear tint and have it re-done.
